<p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;"><br></p>I have been thinking about a few things that bother me about the paintop preview<br>
* first, I am wondering if we don't have a discoverability issue, nothing indicates that there is a popup widget, I wonder if we shouldn't have some kind of arrow next to it (the same would apply for brushes and gradients)<br>
<p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;"><br></p>* but more important to me, currently the preview works only for paint paintop (the one that add colors) while for modifying paintop (eraser, filter, smudge, deform, duplicat) the area remains white. What we would need for those paintop is to draw on a non-transparent layer, with some kind of pattern (a checker ?) and to render the layer on a background with a different color so that transparency is visible.<br>
What I am wondering is wether we want to have different settings of the preview (transparent layer + white background for paint pantop, and pattern for modifying paintop), or we use the same for all paintops ?<br>
